What Happens During The Appointment?To begin, the technician will perform a technique called "mapping". This is the marking and shape development of the brows/lips/eyeliner based on surrounding facial features and can be adjusted endless amounts of time based on a client's aesthetic preferences. Once the mapping is completed, a numbing cream is applied for 20 or more minutes; during this time, clients are required to read over and sign the process paperwork. As the PMU area become a bit less sensitive, the technician will perform three (sometimes more or less) "passes" with the tool and/or machine, inserting pigmentation. Once completed, the excess pigment is removed and healing ointment is applied.
-
How Long is The Appointment?The entire process of a PMU appointment can take up to 3 hours. This appointment should not - and will not - be rushed, so please allow enough time for the entire appointment. The mapping can take roughly one hour, in order to ensure the desired shape and symmetry.
